Benefit Limitation Period (BLP)

A benefit limitation period of the first 12 months of membership applies for members who are new to private health insurance and those transferring from other funds, with hospital cover which pays restricted benefits for private hospital accommodation related to psychiatric services. During the BLP, we pay the public hospital default benefits as per legislation, which means you may have significant out-of-pocket costs to pay for the treatment. Waiting periods still apply for services with a BLP. For example, after serving the 2 months waiting period, your psychiatric benefit will be limited to a default benefit for the following 10 months. After 12 months you are entitled to the full benefit claimable for the treatment.
